The Beginning
Death.
My soul awakens,
Fluid dimensions engulf my energy—
Draw me into a warming presence.
My aura of sight restored,
I perceive a vibrant halo which
encircles specks of fire.
I feel my spirit drifting
amidst the globes---
I sense their utter familiarity.
Through weightless language
They call unto me,
Vibrating rhythms of fervent regard.
My ancestors.
In exquisite recognition,
I fuse myself with their vitality---
Surrendering myself as one,
bequeathing myself to communal fire.
Our light dances beyond darkness,
undulating purpose, love, and eternity.
I celebrate my rest;
And the return to the stellar peace
From which I came.
